You all know that I love a good pre-loved bargain, whether it's from a charity shop, the car boot sale or even from somewhere online and so I love to do a monthly post dedicated to sharing some of my bargains with you!I'm sharing a very spendy purchase to start this month's post with but bear with me.

Homemade Wood Polish to make your home shine….
Over the last year or so I've been experimenting more and more with homemade cleaning products. Today, I'm sharing my latest creation - homemade DIY wood polish.I have lovely dark wood bannisters which can look quite grubby quite quickly thanks to the kids often grubby hands so they need a regular wipe down and polish to keep them looking as lovely as I want them to.I really love my homemade cleaning spray but for my bannisters, I wanted something that would leave a little bit of a shine on the wood so I tried adding some olive oil to the mix.I had a disaster with the first … [Read more...]
